upon further investigation I HAVE seen this forum before. It is definitely more for people WITH emitophobia and no so much for those of us with a relative who has it. But thank you again for suggesting it.

Emetophobia seems fairly common for a 13-year-old girl. I say simply support your daughter unconditionally.
Emetophobia seems to be similar to panic disorder, so exposure therapy will likely help. This should be implemented gradually. |

What the heck is emitophobia? It is related to the word emetic. Something causing someone to throw up?

Doesn't it go past that? Isn't it also a fear of seeing people vomit?
I had a friend see me vomit once and she was so afraid that she avoided me ever since. |
